Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall D
ValueA- NeedB+ TradesF FutureB-
The Bengals won the night they stopped Jackson from sliding. Grade: D.

The trade table was where it all came apart. The Bengals shipped out far more than they hauled back, and no amount of spin dresses up the bill.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through linebacker. Thomas has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. The Jackson value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.

Cornerback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and linebacker is still a hole.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Joe Alt
In pick 18 they get a plug-and-play piece up front, and a steal at that.
Pick19 Rnd1 Brock Bowers
In No. 19 they get a security blanket over the middle at a price that makes it sweeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick49 Rnd2 Ladd McConkey
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Ladd McConkey in pick No. 49. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick80 Rnd3 Braden Fiske
The board fumbled Braden Fiske all the way to Round 3, Pick 16, and they scooped it up. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick97 Rnd3 Trey Benson
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Trey Benson at the Round 3 slot. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick115 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
They barely believed it either: Khyree Jackson still on the board at the 115th pick. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick149 Rnd5 Xavier Thomas
They paid up for Xavier Thomas at the Round 5 slot when waiting would have done the job. It adds depth where they could use a little.
